Sleeping Dragon Onyx

Portia explains her experiences with dreams and having seen her mother. She knows other wolves have dreams and see others sometimes. Did it mean their connection to those they saw are the same as hers? Most of the wolves she sees she doesn’t know who they are, having died before her birth, but they are there and they lead her and guide her to do the things she needs to do. They warn her, as they have recently, but they are not always as accurate or direct and the need of a fleimkepa has become more prominent.

“I don’t think so,” she says, not wanting to hurt the dreams Portia has with her mothers and how she may take them. “They guided the Heda before me, for generations,” she says, though she knows she’s repeating herself. Awkwardly, Thuringwethil smiles with a flick of her tail, knowing there are more wolves in their ranks that don’t understand than those that may.
